so here's why president obama is kevin bacon. the president wants to act rationally and avoid the cuts all together, just like the city slicker character in "footloose" bacon doesn't even know what he's doing on a tractor and definitely doesn't want to crash into another one but neither of them can do anything about it because they are literally and proverbially tied down. remember the shoelace? ♪ >> aahhh! president obama wants to get out of the way of the sequester cuts and see them replaced with a combination of increased tax revenue and spending cuts, but he is tied down to the congress by the shoelace. these automatic spending cuts are just six degrees of sequestration away from kevin bacon and the only difference is that all of us are hitched on to the back of the tractors with them. with me, carmen ulrich, peter goodman and lisa cook. okay. >> kevin wins. hello. kevin wins. >> that's why he's president obama. >> we have a role when we write scripts. if we ever do a "batman" metaphor, the president is always batman. never

bush and any way to adjudicate the possibilities of what war means to the obama administration? >> well, i think that, i think that is absolutely right, it has been a continuation of the bush administration policies, and yes, administrations always try to push the outer bounds of the authority. but one thank is clear is that the laws of war have not changed even if the practice has changed. there are really three reasons that a country can, a state can use force outside of its borders. one, if it is the victim of an armed attack and second if the u.n. security council authorizes it, and three, assisting a state that requests it, and we have stretched that boundary as well far beyond what the laws of war call for. so i think that there is a very serious question about this question of perpetual war, but we should remember historically in the 20th century, the u.s. was at war virtually every decade of the 20th century, so if we think of ourselves as peaceful country that does not engage in war, we need to rethink that. >> that is right. david, i want to ask this question, because
